His sentence is an automatic trigger for a recall petition to be opened - he’s toast and he’s only got himself to blame for it. Sticks and stones ……

Sends a good message out, no one is above the law. Tarra Chuck…

If I punched one of my customers I would be sacked immediately on the basis of gross misconduct.

That would be the case in most places, and if it weren’t immediate it would follow as a result of some disciplinary investigation or process.

He’ll get his comeuppance, but we have to go through the existing process first.

Those who talk about a two tier justice system seem to be correct.

What is the point of the original sentence, they have now found a judge more to their liking.

It really is a two tier system, imagine if one of us did that in Wind street!

I thought 10 weeks was a bit much. Most would avoid jail unless it was more serious offence like a section 18. Original judge messed up

It does make me wonder what is happening when Amesbury gets out of jail after 3 days for knocking seven bells out of some poor sap, while a middle-aged nursery worker got 40% of 31 months for unwisely posting on social media that people could do horrible things to asylum seekers "for all I care".

Edit. N.B. Amesbury's sentence is still 10 weeks but suspended for two years, not as the post above said a two year suspended sentence.

Yet the second judge said the original sentence was "spot on" but he decided to suspend it.

I can understand if it was one punch, but he punched him 5 times whilst on the floor.

Can the person attacked bring a civil case. It wouldn't take long to crowd fund the costs if it was possible.

He said it was spot on then suspended it? Obviously it wasn't then.

Not really my field, but as far as I can see there are two options for a victim who feels the sentence was too lenient, or that the outcome has not compensated for the harm done..

1. Unduly Lenient Sentence Scheme. “Under the extended scheme, victims will be given the power to challenge the sentences of a wider range of crimes in circumstances where they, or the public (those unconnected to the case), believe a punishment to be too lenient. (…) The ULS scheme permits prosecutors, victims, their families and the public to make an application to the Attorney General to review a sentence that they believe to be too low. Only one request need be lodged, which must be done within 28 days of the court hearing taking place.”

2. Civil case. Certainly possible but centres on a claim for compensation for harm done (whether physical or psychological) and so is about monetary damages rather than a harsher sentence. There are a few options here:

The length was spot on, but he thought it could be suspended, I certainly don't think it should be

The judge who initially sentenced Amesbury was a deputy district judge and junior to the judge who reviewed the sentence today. There’s no doubt Amesbury deserved a stretch, but I was surprised given the fact we’re releasing people early he didn’t get a suspended sentence.

There’s judge hearing the case today was sitting with two magistrates at Crown Court and he also ordered Amesbury to carry out 200 hours of unpaid work. Amesbury must also undertake an alcohol monitoring programme, go on an anger management course, and carry out 20 days of rehabilitation work.

Was Amesbury out of order, absolutely. Is he a danger to the wider society, if he’s never been in trouble before and this is a 1 off I’d argue he isn’t, especially given the rehabilitative measures in the sentence.

Does Amesbury deserve to lose his job - absolutely. Is he fit to be an MP, in my opinion the answer is noand he’s not the only one.

I hope the citizens in his constituency boot him out at the first available opportunity.

That's different to your opening post, the message sent out has now been silenced.

He hasn't had the decency to resign, so as you say hopefully his constituents will kick him out
